Editorial policy and affiliate disclosure
eSIMRated is an independent review site focused on eSIM providers. This page explains how we fund our work, our relationships with eSIM providers, and the editorial standards we follow.
How we fund our work
Affiliate disclosure: Some outbound links are affiliate links, which means we may earn a small commission at no cost to you. eSIMRated is an independent review site. Every provider is scored on the same published rubric, from figures the providers publish themselves.
All providers are reviewed using the same methodology and criteria, and scored from the figures each provider publishes. eSIMRated is an independent review site, so we do not ask you to take our ranking on trust: every score can be checked against the provider pages we cite.
Affiliate links and compensation
Some links on this site are compensated. When you click an affiliate link to an eSIM provider and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Compensated links are marked with rel="sponsored" in the page source, in accordance with FTC guidelines.
Affiliate relationships exist with HelloRoam, Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, and other providers listed on this site. No provider pays for placement, ratings, or editorial badges.
How scoring is kept honest
Our editorial team applies the same scoring standards to every provider. No provider can:
- Pay for a higher rating or an “Editor’s Choice” badge
- Preview or approve reviews before publication
- Request removal of negative findings
- Influence our ranking methodology or weighting criteria
Every provider review includes genuine negatives. If a provider has a flaw, we report it regardless of any affiliate relationship.
Review process
All provider reviews undergo the same evaluation protocol regardless of business relationships:
Content standards
- All pricing data is verified against official provider sources
- We clearly distinguish between verified data and provider-reported information
- We publish Speed as a 0-5 editorial score. Speed tests we run feed that score. We do not publish a raw Mbps figure for any provider
- We do not fabricate user reviews or testimonials
- Corrections are published promptly with updated timestamps
- Pages display “Prices verified” and “Last updated” dates
Corrections and updates
If you find inaccurate information on eSIMRated, contact us at corrections@esimrated.com. We investigate all reports and publish corrections within 48 hours when warranted. Updated content is marked with a revised date.
